We need you and your help | DIDG.e.VENT Festival 2011

The DIDG.e.VENT Festival 2011 is over. An event with magnificent spirit and fascinating artists. A reunion of the like-minded, international didgeridoo community. And you were there! Our sincere thanks are given to all of you..

WE NEED YOU AND YOUR HELP

As you know, all helpers assisted voluntarily in this event and also the artists waived their fee and a better part of the travel costs.

To make this event possible, high expenses appeared. And despite the unique location and the good weather, only two third of the needed 1,500 visitors arrived on all three days. Without doubt, we are very grateful for the coming of each individual visitor. But unfortunately, we cannot cover the costs with the revenue of approx. 1000 guests.

WHAT EXACTLY DOES THAT MEAN?

Overall, costs of 19000 EUR incurred. Thanks to your visits and donation, we were able to pay 12000 EUR of the outstanding invoices. But unfortunately, there are still 7000 EUR unpaid which we are not able to pay.

Unfortunately, this also means that we cannot grant Mukoviszidose e.V. a donation only our lasting for months prearrangement.

In detail, these are costs for the stage, lighting and technology, travel and catering costs for the artists, security service, operating expenses, advertising, performing rights society, sound level measurement, voucher, sanitary facilities, rent for music equipment, event liability insurance. Costs like telephone costs, shuttle transfer for the artists, fees for the equipment transport, T-Shirts, rental of video cameras postage and office supplies have been advanced from private resources and are not included in the mentioned amount.

For this reason, we urgently need your help and hope that you respond to our appeal for donation.

If requested, we will give you a donation receipt. Also you have the opportunity to help the association Didge 'N' Culture with a membership. The membership fee is arbitrary between 30 and 120 EUR in the year. If possible, stir your friends, relatives and colleagues into action.

If low or high amount - everything helps. Only together and with your help, we are able to keep the association’s goals alive. Let us make sure that these kind of important events can be realized in the future.

We would like to thank you very much in advance for your support. With warmest regards,

Your Didge ‘N’ Cuture Team
